Does exactly what it says!
This is the perfect kettle. The preset temperature settings are a great feature. The all stainless steel kettle makes the unit feel durable and is also easy to clean.

Cuisinart Electric kettle
There are positives and negatives to this teapot. It is made entirely of stainless steel inside and outside, which can be a positive but the outside gets very hot and is not insulated so it is possible to get a burn if not careful. The water does boil quickly to the appropriate temperatures. The ability to turn off the unit was a little challenging until I got the hang ...

The best kettle for different water temp needs
We love our perfect temp cordless Cuisinart kettle. We use it daily. It is so helpful to be able to select different water temperatures. Why waste energy bringing to a boil and waiting for the water to cook when you can go straight to what you need. And it takes up a small amount of space in our tiny kitchen.

None as good as 25 year old Chef's Choice kettle
This kettle was a gift after my ancient electric kettle finally gave up the ghost. It has unremovable plastic in the spout, and unnecessarily complicated buttons. You have to hit the Start button twice to turn it all the way off. I just wanted a simple kettle with all stainless interior, one switch to turn it on/off, and a clear view of the water level. This has non...

Not Like the Old One!
I bought this to replace the exact model that I’ve had for years, which I loved. This one is extremely loud (I mean extremely) and doesn’t heat the water to the desired temperature.

Works as expected
First time electric kettle user. Was a little surprised at the water heating noise, but that is normal (i mean, you want the water to get hot right?). I used both boil and the lower temps for herbal teas. I use this device about 10 times a day and no issues.

Perfect cup of tea
My husband surprised me with this electric teapot, for Christmas. Wow I got something I love i drink so much tea everyday. Besides the name Cuisinart great company all my kitchen appliances are Cuisinart. This teapot brews with consistency the perfect cup of tea. No more waiting for a traditional teapot to boil, cuisinart is quick and has a keep warm feature.

Nice pot
This is a nice pot. It has several different settings for different types of tea. It heats up quickly and looks good on the counter. One negative is that the lid opening is kind of small. I can get a brush in to clean it but it's a tight fit for a hand.

Kettle failed after 5 months
We bought this kettle to replace our old electric kettle, which we use a few times a day to make tea. We were initially pretty happy with it - the side indexing is easier to read, and the lower control panel keeps your hands away from the pot except when you're actually pouring. But after less then 5 months of service it died – put the pot back on the base after pouri...

Great kettle!
My old electric kettle stopped working and we needed one ASAP. After researching I decided on the Cuisinart perfect temp, and it works perfectly. It has multiple temps to choose from and a keep warm setting. You do have to apply pressure to push the buttons, it’s not touch sensitive, so sometimes we think we turned it on, but didn’t. My husband can’t hear the beeps-must...

LEAKS!
This is the 2nd one we purchased. Water accumulates on the top of the heating base. Dry it. Water has accumulated again by the next day.
We were so pleased with the operation and convenience of selecting different temperatures, we replaced the first leaky Prefect Temp Cordless Tea Pot with another one.
Mistake!

Response from Staples :
We’re sorry to hear about your experience with your PerfecTemp® Cordless Electric Kettle, especially after previously enjoying its features and temperature control options. Water collecting on the base can sometimes occur if condensation forms or if the kettle is overfilled past the maximum line, so we recommend ensuring the lid is fully closed and avoiding filling beyond the indicated level. That said, leaking is not the experience we want for our customers, and we’d like to further review this with you. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference ticket # 8900551156 so we can assist with next steps.

Super accurate and easy to use
The PerfecTemp Cordless Electric Kettle is very easy to use. Just press the button and it heats up very quickly. I confirmed the 6 preset temperatures were within 1 degree, per my ThermoWorks ThemaPen!

I highly recommend this water kettle for its accuracy and ease of use.

Almost essential for the operation of our kitchen
We used the previous model extensively and, when it finally expired, we immediately replaced it. We're able to quickly get boiling water for cooking or pan-rinsing without using a stove burner and we can get a precise temperature appropriate for the tea we want to drink. Easy to read and easy to use.

Better Tea on the Way
Exactly what I needed. Has multiple settings to heat water for tea, and to hold it at that temperature. It turns itself off and is easy to work with, has clear design etc. This is what I was looking for to make better tea!
